The simplest scenario would just involve the use of an unaltered, existing
pcb layout file that serves as a collection of useful footprint elements.

Those managing multiple users or seeking a more organised library, may opt
to create custom pcb layout files populated with a standard set of elements
for use by users.

pcb-rnd will parse any valid layout and simply list the elements it
contains either way.

Cheers,

Erich

Erich,

Does that mean default .pcb files, not special ones with embedded mode?
Sounds good for reuse, and good for version control too.
